<p>So i've been randomly assigned to review <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/69890" target="_blank" title="https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/69890">https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/69890</a> -- this is a PR to RISC-V -- honestly, I have no horse in this race. It's a policy decision and I don't care. But I'm not sure (a) who to assign the PR to and (b) who is sort of responsible for making this decision anyway?</p>
<p>I think that before we accept a Tier 2 or Tier 3 platform, we should have designated "owners" -- we should also probably use the same ping mechanism to be able to blast out info to them.</p>

<p>Do we have a kind of issue around figuring a set of useful folks to ping?</p>

<p>I know we've talked about "windows" and linux and other such groups --</p>

<p>it seems like we should be using more such groups for various parts of the compiler too perhaps? not sure.</p>

<p>cc <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="239881">@Josh Triplett</span> for the "tier" part of the above -- are we tracking this tier effort anywhere anymore?</p>

<p>I plan to pick it back up as soon as I get back from vacation. My apologies for not updating the RFC yet.</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="239881">@Josh Triplett</span> one thing that'd be nice is some kind of tracking location I guess...</p>
